Roscosmos has distributed congratulations that Oleg Kononenko, Nikolai Chub, and Alexander Grebenkin sent to Earth on September 1 for schoolchildren and students in Russia.

Russian cosmonauts on the ISS wished success in their studies to everyone who sits in classrooms and at desks, those who go to schools and colleges, vocational schools, institutes and universities. They noted that work in space depends on the knowledge accumulated by mankind, and that they have to constantly learn and take exams.
